Bread

Make them at the beginning of the week for sinful breakfast treats, or make them on the weekend for drop-by guests. Either way, everybody wins.

During our three-hour class we made big crusty loaves of artisan bread, made from organic Canadian bread flour, Wolfgang’s stone milled whole wheat flour, and no yeast at all. Instead, we used a sourdough culture.

It's such an integral part of our diets–and has had such a bad rap with the low-carb anti-gluten gang—that it's odd to think of bread as cool or trendy. But these days nearly every foodie hot spot is embracing the loaf (especially if it's stale) and making it into something new.

Fill your home with the scent of fresh-baked bread with this cheesy, no-rise, mix-and-go quick loaf.
